Answer:

AB=75m

Step-by-step explanation:

In the \Delta SCB and \Delta SDA

\angle S=\angle S\\BC||AD\\\Rightarrow\angle SBC=\angle SAD\\\angle SCB =\angle SDA

By\ AAA\ \Delta\ and\ \Delta SDA\ are\ similar\\\\ \Rightarrow\frac{SC}{SD} =\frac{SB}{SA} \\\\ \frac{80}{180} =\frac{60}{SA}\\\\ SA=60\times\frac{180}{80} \\\\SA=135\\\\AB=SA-SB\\\\=135-60\\\\=75m

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The measurement of the arc is 3Pi

that represents 108 / 360 of the circle.

Equation

108/350 2 * pi * R = 3* pi

Solution                            

Pi is on both sides of the equation. They both cancel.

108/360 = 0.3

0.3 * 2 * R = 3

0.6 * R = 3

R = 3/0.6

R = 5

Here are the steps

1: Put the compass on Q and make the width equal to the distance from Q to L. Extend line LM towards the left side of L and draw an arc hitting the line segment on the left side of L

2. <span> Without changing the width and position of the compass, draw an arc between L and M.

3. Without changing the width of the compass, put the compass on the point of intersection of the arc and line LM (left side of L). Draw an arc above line LM.

4. Without changing the width of the compass, put the compass on the point of intersection of the arc and line LM (right side of L). Draw an arc above line LM.

5. Use a straight edge to make a line from the intersection of the two arcs above line LM to Q intersecting through L along the way. </span>
